Christmas lessons
Happy Catalan Christmas!It must be getting round to that time of year again... Christmas! There are some Christmas lesson plans on DevelopingTeachers.com, if you are looking, and another 2 million plus on Google, it would appear.
A webquest would be one idea, and here's a Christmas webquest from OneStopEnglish.
If you have a class blog, they could post their results there, or they could write about their own Christmas traditions as well as ones they discover in a webquest (in the image, above, a Catalan Christmas tradition).
If you've got young learners, somewhere I would always look for ideas would be EnchantedLearning.com, where there are some results.
A Christmas card is always fun with kids -- you could get them to draw a nativity scene and then label the different things (shepherds, kings, donkeys, the Baby Jesus, etc) so that they learn some English too.

More Xmas stuff on the British Council Kids site.
And more British Council Christmas things on Learn English Central...
Or how about you (and your learners) buy nothing for Christmas...?
Or at least discuss the idea in class!
Ask people to explain the origins of their Christmas traditions (like, why do we have tinsel on Xmas trees?), whatever country you're teaching in...
I always find it works well for discussions (no one ever agrees!)
